Hi Everybody;
A bit of background, I have a 93 octane livernois tuned 2013 with intake, downpipes, corsa, 160 tstat. The tune hasn't been updated for the downpipes yet and I have a 3bar ready to install, but being that I bought the car with the tuner, its a $250 (thats like $335 Canadian)fee to get registered with Livernois for tune updates. I just need tuning for the pipes and 3bar in the short run (no rush tho as I dont get cat codes). I do however plan on adding WMI in the long run, hence this thread; with this fee being required to stay with Livernois I am considering other options as the cost is minimized to switch if I sell the mycal.
Will Livernois only tune for the ALKY kit and 100% methanol or are they flexible?
On my cougar, I just ran a simple boost activated system with a small nozzle to keep IAT's down (it was an uncooled roots blower) and it did make a difference without being tuned for it, this gave me flexibility to run pure water as well or even turn off the system without putting my engine in danger. My ideal setup would be a smallish jet on a mild tune of 50/50 methanol run off a controller, and a mild tune that would give some room for error; then have a track day tune thats more aggressive which would only be used on days where I've taken the time to check everything over.
Has anybody run a wmi system without tuning compensation and seen benefits; the ecu should see a reduction in intake temps and be able to add at least some timing for this. It worked on my cougar; although without seeing maximum power gains. I'm not necessarily looking for the most power off the WMI system, but the best setup for what I want.
